the sfpuc, the human rights commission and small business commission support the changes. here to discuss the legislation is radicka fox from the sfpuc and miss dick-endrizzi from the small business commission and i have included language to ensure our foreman lbes will not be disadvantaged. miss fox. >> thank you, supervisor chiu for your leadership on this issue and good morning, chair farrell and members mar and avalos, thank you for considering this item today. supervisor chiu really provided you with a great overview of the changes that we're seeking. just wanted to report that since 2006, when the puc lbe program was established, it's been very successful in creating regional opportunities for small businesses. we have about 225 puc lbes that have been certified through the same process, that san francisco lbes go through. so the program is working really well and as supervisor chiu said we think with these proposed changes, we think we can continue to be successful in opening up contracting opportunities to small businesses throughout our service territory. as super

what sfpuc staff has just put -- >> 10% higher than current pg&e. >>> right. what sfpuc staff has somehow come up with, then it can't be right, is that they've put before you a "like lpi price" that is 70% higher than the lpi projected. and none of us, because they haven't been communicating with us about this new presentation, we have no idea where that came from. you know, maybe they're right, but i doubt it. but even if they are, we wouldn't know because there's been no communication and collaboration. >> well, [speaker not understood] believes in transparency and communication. >>> right. we need to get back to that. >> the general manager? >> yeah, i just wanted to point out and i do take exception because under ed harrington the issue that he brought in front of the board of supervisors was a premium, a $10 premium. i remember him saying that pg&e is like putting lip stick on a pig. and, so, the issue is we're still presenting a premium. so, nothing has changed about a premium. it's just that lpi is now saying that if we do all the build out, it can be a

. >> item 10 e is public hearing to consider and possible action to adopt the sfpuc's 10-year financial plan for fy 2013-14 through fy 2022-23. and you do have an amendment on the table for that. >> all right. we have an amendment on the table. i'd like to vote on that first before we go to the actual -- >> may i mike a minor amendment to the amendment? >> sure. >> which is just to add the dates after it says by fiscal year, just add the dates 2013, 2014 just to be clear which fiscal year those numbers will be -- >> i can't believe todd didn't put that in there. all right. without objection, that shall be the order. i think we've all seen the language. is there a motion? >> so moved. >> moved as amended. to the amendment. all those signify by saying aye. >> aye. >> opposed? motion carries. now to the main motion which is on the item 10 e. is there a motion? >> i'll move. >> moved by commissioner moran. >> second. >> okay, great [laughter] >> getting nervous there. moved and seconded. all those in -- do i have to ask for public comment on this again? no. >> no. >> all right. all those in

i've been doing city hall stuff and working on sfpuc issues for about the last decade, which is much less than dr. jackson has been working on similar issues. she's been doing it for several decades. and over the decade that i've worked on issues like making sure that we don't bring in the new peaker natural gas plants issues like closing down the morant plant, issues around the bayview hunters point shipyard candlestick development on top of the superfund site, and myriad other issues around the southeast and the entire city when it comes to environmental protection and getting good low-cost clean energy to the public. espinola jackson has always been around. i'm bumping into her constantly. i wish she was here to hear it. her contribution to the city process is profound -- has been profound. and so i not only would want to lionize dr. jackson, but just to say that even though dr. jackson has helped solve many problems like getting rid of the last power plant and stopping a new one from coming in and without her we probably would have never accomplished those goals. but there are st

commissioners, i just wanted to give you a quick update on three items, where things are at with the sfpuc and the california public utilities commission, the status of our customer notification and education plan and an update on our legislation related to clean energy and ms. radica fox will provide the legislative update for you, with respect to the first item, the sfpuc activities, we are progressing as planned, we are on time as our time schedule, we have rated options possible at our commission on march 12th, at that time, we'll be presenting our commission with a customer poll results, we'll be presenting the not to exceed rate for adoption and possible adoption, consideration and possible adoption and that will be accompanied with a report from the rate fairness board providing the commission with advice on those not to exceed rates. at the california puc, we are actively engage on that setting on the proceeding that they are conducting on pg and e's proposed green tariff omtion, they proposed a 100% green power product. that product is proposed to use green e energy certificates,

barbara hale assistant general manager for power at sfpuc so i wanted to update you on three items, our overall clean timeline, our recent activities at the public utilities commission and activities at the california public utilities commission so with respect to the time line. at this point we're on track. by this date we should have completed presentations at our commission on the presentation by local power on their proposed business case and financial deliverables, and have presented before the commission materials to start to get them familiar with the not to exceed rate proposal which we have been discussing with the board. those activities went forward on tuesday and i will talk about that and we might see slippage with individual elements but even with they am seeing cleanpower sf given to the customers as our published calendar projected the slippage is in part because we're still getting the rate fairness board comfortable with the not to exceed rates with how the mix of resources we rely on for our cleanpower sf program influences the overall all cost of the services and the

a lot of conversation about this program for a long time, the consultant that's been hired by the sfpuc has a proposal or a plan they've presented that says you're going to have this many jobs, this much renewable generation online and this year, and maybe that program is not completely feasible but what we need is some kind of numbers, we need facts and we need them now. we need more than just the shell contract, we need to know what kind of investment are we make ining the build-out, how much money are we going to spend, how many jobs are we going to create and that will help us immensely fight this misinformation, we can't fight it without that, unless you have the numbers for how many megawatts you're going to have in the city and how many jobs you're going to have, that's going to be a hard one to sell, we're fighting hard to fight this misinformation, it's great that you're going to continue to have this information, and i urge you to ask the puc to get those numbers to you and have a plan in place as soon as possible, we need to know those details right now so we can maintain a g

of the earlier meetings some weeks ago, one of the employees who works for the hrc but is paid by sfpuc came here and made some statements that were not correct. and when i was attending that meeting, according to the process, i did not see the members who were there, and one of those members is here. i did not see the process brought to this committee correctly. so, i'm just going to speak about this. i've written an article and i'm going to write another one on this. but, commissioners, i attend this meeting so that we have some standard and we follow processes. thank you very much. >> excuse me, did you say jesuit training? >>> yes. >> do you have a candidate for pope? >>> oh, yes, oh, yes. [laughter] >> bear with me, at the appropriate time. >>> i chatted with you when the white smoke goes up. [laughter] >> well put. any other public comments? i have many requests for specific items, but if you have a public comment generally, please come forward now. welcome. >>> good afternoon, david pilpow. just two brief items under general public comment. first, on the cover i haven't seen a ye

rate on energy to the customer, so it's vital that we get the lafco to send a strong message to the sfpuc hey that's not good enough. we need the local distribution and the local jobs. we need to get back to the other model and make it work. thanks. >> thank you. any other member of the public would like to comment please come forward. >> david mc cord. i am the chair of the energy committee and san francisco has a great opportunity here now to develop really first class community choice aggregation system and right now there are two models presented. one by puc staff. they have been working diligently on that and also they -- the plan, the model being presented, developed and explained by the commission's consultant of local power. we think that local power is much better. it has the robust build out behind the meter, and lower premiums, price premiums especially in the first year. that will help people to stay opted in and not opt out, and as mr. brooks said lots of jobs for san francisco residents, so i would like the commission to send a strong message that for puc staff to work with

miller. >> i will add on to what was reported on there are continued meeting with the sfpuc staff and the stakeholders and meetings with the technical review process which is a peer review process and those meetings have been interim. as you expect there is some level of discussion about how -- i call it phase two, but the local build out is going to occur, when it's going to occur, how it will be funded, the timing of that, and the siewnchs made under the model and those are not always discussions. first of all just to try to get to understand where we are, and second what is needed to move forward so i wanted to let you know those are ongoing. i think they have been productive. i think while there is some difficulty in those that at least your lafco's staff has pledged to see if we can figure out a common path to get the recommendation before you as soon as possible. i just wanted to bring that to your attention. thanks. >> great thank you. commissioner campos, we talked about joining puc lafco meeting. do you
